‘It is often the case that we're very quick to criticise work that's undertaken or services made but I kind of like to turn that on its head.
Tom was working here at Easter and this summer holiday to complete works to the new fire system...
I'd like to express my appreciation for his high standards and work ethic.
He's explained things in detail when I've queried something or expressed an interest in the work he was carrying out.
He's been amazingly polite and courteous to all staff that have been on site and that has been appreciated.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend your company to other schools or companies should the subject arise.’
